Janice  Chesters

Janice Chesters

Australia

Janice has broadened her career beyond her PhD interest in rural mental health research to investigate rural workforce issues, theoretical and applied medical education, Indigenous health, rural health in general and health and medical sociology. Janice's teaching and publications have been able to highlight the complexity and diversity of rural places, and to move beyond a paralyzing negativity about rural health to recommend better ways of working with rural people and delivering better rural health services. Janice is currently Associate Professor and Deputy Director at the Monash University Department of Rural and Indigenous Health in Moe Victoria.
